Guides
Every way to hide a face in a photo or video — in the tool you already have, and the faster way.
Blur a face in CapCut
Mask a mosaic effect to a moving face with manual keyframes, step by step.
Blur a face in DaVinci Resolve
A node, a window mask, and the Tracker palette — Resolve's tracking is strong.
Blur a face in Final Cut Pro
Gaussian filter, a shape mask, and the Tracker behavior, done properly.
Blur a face in Google Photos
The Blur slider isn't for this — the Markup pen is. Here's how, and a faster way.
Blur a face in iMovie
iMovie has no blur tool — the honest workaround, and a faster option.
Blur a face in InShot
Overlay, mosaic and a keyframed mask — the manual way, and a faster one.
Blur a face in Photoshop
The Blur Gallery, a layer mask, and full control over the edge.
Blur a face in PicsArt
The Blur brush covers a face by hand — here's how, and a faster automatic way.
Blur a face in Premiere Pro
Gaussian Blur, a mask, and the built-in tracker, done properly.
Blur a face in Snapseed
The Lens Blur tool works backwards for this — here's the real workaround.
Blur faces in a video on iPhone
No built-in tool tracks a moving face. Here's what to use instead.
Blur a license plate in a photo
Draw a region over a plate and cover it — no face detection needed.
Add a censor bar over eyes
Size a solid-colour bar precisely over the eyes, on photo or video.
Put an emoji over a face
Drop any emoji over a detected face, sized and angled to fit.
Pixelate a face
When to use pixelation over a blur or a solid block, and how to do it.
Remove location data from a photo
What's actually in the file, and what strips it on iPhone.
Blur every face in one tap.
Deface finds the faces automatically, on your iPhone. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is watermarked.
